Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once

Weird Among Us Cosplay Lets You Be All 10 Players At Once An Instagram user is making "low-cost" Among Us cosplays using his own body parts to represent the crew members of the beloved multiplayer game. An Instagram user has found a bizarre way to cosplay multiple Among Us characters at the same time. The social deduction game has taken the internet by storm despite being largely ignored when it released in 2018. The game has reached such incredible amounts of popularity that the developer cancelled a sequel to focus up on developing the current game. Among Us, like the similarly explosive Fall Guys before it, owes much of its success to its adorable, minimally designed characters. The astronauts in Among Us are small, beanlike creatures, decked out like Skittles in bright primary colors. Like in Fall Guys, players can purchase cosmetic accessories for their astronaut, including hats, and even little pets that can follow them around. While players are mostly interested in Amo...

Among Us Worst Task ISNT The Card Swipe

Among Us Worst Task ISNT The Card Swipe

There is a wide variety of tasks in Among Us. Some are easier and far less frustrating to complete than others, and one should be removed completely.

Among Us Worst Task ISNT The Card Swipe

There are a lot of different tasks in Innersloth's Among Us, but the most infuriating one is (unfortunately) both on the game's most common map and far, far too long. Unlike some tasks in Among Us like "Fix the electrical wires" which ask players to move from room to room and complete a short minigame in each one, Among Us' worst task makes players stay uncomfortably still in a very exposed location for a lengthy period of time - putting them in the crosshairs of any Impostors who may stumble past.

The Skeld is Among Us' most popular map, and for good reason. It's the perfect size for a group of ten players to run around in - just big enough to allow for certain people to be alone but not so big players get lost. Even people who are new to Among Us can quickly learn the ins and outs of The Skeld, thanks in part to its simple hallway layout and distinctive room designs. Both of Among Us' other maps, Polus and MIRA HQ, are larger and either more convoluted (MIRA) or more open and sporadic (Polus) which can be hard for players, especially new ones, to get used to.

However, just because The Skeld is the best map in Among Us doesn't mean it has the best tasks. Some of the tasks in MIRA HQ, for example, are not only interesting from a gameplay perspective but also in the way that they connect to the larger lore and story of Among Us, especially in rooms like The Laboratory. The Skeld's tasks aren't quite as meaningful to Among Us' overarching plot, but many of them are still perfectly enjoyable, if a little simple. One task, however, is almost certainly a death sentence in Among Us - or at least a sign that the player who is unlucky enough to have to perform it is about to be frustrated.

Among Us' Start The Reactor Task Is Awful

Among Us Worst Task ISNT The Card Swipe

Starting the Reactor in Among Us is basically a five-step electronic memory game, but it's the speed (or lack thereof) at which the task proceeds, combined with the amount of space it takes up on the screen, which makes it so infuriating. While nearly all of the tasks in Among Us make it so the majority of the screen is obscured, the amount of time the Start Reactor task stays up means players are usually vulnerable for periods of up to thirty full seconds - and that's if they don't accidentally press the wrong button, which forces them to try again.

To make things worse, the lengthy amount of time it takes to complete Among Us' Start Reactor task means that it is incredibly likely another player will discover a dead body or press the Emergency Meeting button while someone is still on their third or forth round of memory inputs. This forces all players to go back to the cafeteria, discuss what's happening, vote someone off, and only then can the player return to The Skeld's Reactor to finish the task. [Update 18/11/2020: This article originally had a statement about the Start Reactor task resetting after an Emergency Meeting/Body Report. This was incorrect, but was overlooked due to the author's frustration with being interrupted on the second button press for the third time in a row.]

Starting the Reactor in Among Us simply takes too long. It's too easily interrupted, and it might make players more vulnerable than any other task in the game. While many players give the Swipe Card task in Admin a hard time for being frustrating (and rightfully so, at least on the PC version of Among Us) it's really the Reactor where player's hatred should be targeted towards. Hopefully, Among Us' new map will bring everything players love about The Skeld back, without having overly-frustrating tasks like this one.

Among Us Hat Graph All 94 Hats Ranked From Cute To Sus

Among Us Hat Graph All 94 Hats Ranked From Cute To Sus Among Us' hats can say a lot about the player that wears them and may influence who dies first. Here's every hat in the game ranked from cute to sus. One of the best ways to appear innocent in Among Us is by dressing for the occasion. While judging someone by their appearance is superficial, it could also be a player's saving grace. This graph will examine every hat in Among Us and rank them according to how cute, boring, silly, and sus they are. In a social deduction game like Among Us, players usually don't have a lot to go off outside of appearances. This becomes even more true for players who primarily play in public lobbies where voice chat isn't an option. A player could be given the benefit of the doubt immediately depending on how they choose to dress. While dressing cute could help an innocent crewmate stay out of the spotlight, it can also allow the Impostor to prey on the unassuming minds of their vic...

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are

Among Us Theory What Impostors Really Are Among Us' dastardly Impostors terrorize crewmates with various forms of killing and sabotage, and fans have theories about their origins and motives. The Impostors that give Among Us its name and central gameplay hook are, by design, a mysterious bunch. On the surface, they're nearly identical to Among Us' colorful crewmates, but Impostors exhibit certain strange and terrifying properties. Due to the game's lack of overt story, it's unclear what exactly Among Us' Impostors are, but fans have a few compelling theories. Unlike normal crewmates, Impostors have the ability to slink through vents, which - unless crewmates are small enough to do this, too, but simply have no need to - suggests they have some kind of shapeshifting ability. This would also explain Impostors' ability to open up a large mouth at the waist of their spacesuits and stab victims with sharp tongues. It's possible Among Us' crewmates also ha...

Why Among Us 2021 Roadmap Hasnt Released Yet

Why Among Us 2021 Roadmap Hasnt Released Yet A 2021 map for Among Us updates is still missing in action, despite a promise early this year - which may be because predictions are impossible. In a January blog post, Among Us creators InnerSloth promised a content roadmap for 2021. The idea was to "be more transparent" about what features were launching for the social deduction game, and in which order. As of mid-May, however, that roadmap for Among Us still doesn't exist, and given both the time of year and the likely explanation, it may not arrive at all. Among Us first launched in June 2018 as a mobile-only title for iOS and Android, only reaching PCs in November that year. It was largely sidelined until early 2020, when Twitch and YouTube streamers helped shoot it to massive popularity. This resulted in a Nintendo Switch port in December, and plans for both Xbox and PlayStation versions by the end of 2021. In terms of original content, the biggest release so far has been...
